The unexamined life is not worth living...
It was a very silent night near the banks of river Bhagirathi, with a clear new moon lighting the starry sky where I was reading the known history of one of the most ancient religion of the world - Hinduism. All that is known in the world about this religion are all either myths or stories. Nobody actually knows when did this faith come into being like we know about the christianity, the muslims, the buddhisms, the jainisms, etc.
But when you look at the myths of this ancient religion you will find the links to almost everything that we have proven in the modern era. The shape of Earth, rotation of earth,day-time calculation, distance of the moon, planets in solar system, urban system, agriculture system, medicine system, and many more. However this might be termed as a way to outsource the religion and to keep it in pace with the modern society. This might be one of the reasons that Hinduism is still a major religion when the others of its time the Greeks and the Romans pantheon have alnost gone extinct.
But why am I telling you this? You see, I wanted to bring to your attention to one of the biggest question of all the known and unknown religions, i.e., WHERE ARE THE GODS??? Where is Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Zeus, Jupiter, Odin, and many more?
I knew the answer. Atleast I thought I knew when while watching the new moon I suddenly realised that all the millions the Hindu gods are not supreme gods, nor are the Big 3 - Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. They all acually deities whom we can relate to easily. There is actually only one supreme god, the Primal God. Why? Its beacause even the Big 3 meditate and possibly pray to him!!!
My mind was blown away. Heart started beating fast, too fast, making me realise that I have suddenly touched the untouched, restricted topic that must not be brought to light unless I had the power to assure its safety and judge the possible outcome. But, it was far too late to regret that. I, having lived only 30 years of my life with no worthy accomplishments in life, became too sad. Knowing that I won't be allowed to live longer,
I prayed seriously for the first time focussing on the hurting soul so as to make the connection to the supreme god to bless the humans to find peace with one another and with Earth and to not further destroy the planet we live on. In my final breath I asked to be forgiven and to bless my family, my friends and my love of good health and fortune.
I could not remember how much time had passed. Infact I had no idea if there was actually any law of time to where I was. I waited and waited for someone or someting to happen finally growing tired I starred reviewing my life which I could somehow remember too clearly. My first speech, first time walking, first friend, love interest, failures, successes, the first time I literally cried, until the my last time living. How did I know I am not alive now you ask? Well, I couldn't feel,or see, or talk, or breathe, so how could I be alive.
Time passed by, when suddenly my being or soul came into contact with a spark of energy, maybe chi making me comfortable and opening my senses. After a few moments I could start to feel my surroundings through my senses and saw 3 glowing sparks.
Suddenly one of the sparks greeted me. "Agniputra, how are you feeling now?"
"I feel great finally. Greeting Lord, but my name is not Agniputra. My name is.. ... ..why don't I remember my name?!!!"
"Don't worry, if you don't remember yours, do remember about anything else?"
"Ah, yes I remember everyones, my family my life everything except for my name. Why? Whats happening to me?"
"Well first lets introduce ourselves, I am Brahma. He is Shiva, and the one sleeping is Vishnu. Do remember who we are? Now can you see us?"
" Yes, I can see you now, and them too. But how?"
"Child, we are dead and can no longer revive ourselves. There was a great war among all of life in this universe. We won but only our offspring could live in a place contructed with the last of out powers on Earth sealed from the rest of universe"
" Holysh**, I did not know. What now? What can I do for you? Not that I can do anything, but is there something I can do? Perhaps You could pray to Parampita. I feel he must have a way tohelp right?"
"Hahaha.. no Paramapita is no longer alive. The powers are but without a soul. Since you could find his existence and be not burned away as the punishment except for forgetting your name, then there is no harm in telling you about it"
"Parampita or the Primal god was the first existence that came into being from the infinity itself. This is what you can understand in the simple terms."
